I was rewatching The First Day of Summer, and because I've been reading a lot of Sportarobbie fics recently, I couldn't stop imagining the dating montage of Robbie and the fly, but with Sportacus there instead. Now I want to write this.

So I saw someone mention that Robbie actually had a good relationship with his mother canonically. I didn't really look into it much and couldn't find sources but I bet I'd find more if I looked over episodes again.
In the episode First Day of Summer, tho we see Robbie hang up this huge portrait of a person with #1 on the frame? They looked very much lik Robbie and so I supposed it was his mom hehe :) so here's sketches of him and his mom Regina Rotten
+ his father Glanni (i will fight glanni with my two hands)
Yes a lot of this is very headcanony! But I like imaginatively expanding on the world of Lazytown :D

So uh. I don’t cry at media a lot. The most vivid recent memory (before like five minutes ago) is probably the music video for No One But You (Only The Good Die Young). So like. Why did my brain decide I was emotionally invested enough in Robbie Rotten to make me cry at The First Day Of Summer, s3 e09 of LazyTown? Like. It’s so wholesome and tragic and the character development. 
Anyway. Tl;dr - Ell just cried at an episode of LazyTown and apparently has no shame admitting that lol

Have another fanfic.  This one’s been written for a while.  I like to think that ‘First Day of Summer’ is the last episode chronologically, because the character development in that episode kinda just got dumped after that :/ I wanted nice Robbie to stick around.  So here’s my take on what happened afterwards!  Sport’s been slightly oblivious, Robbie even more so.
Title: Second Day of Summer
Rating: G
“Come on, guys, race you to the lake!” Stephanie hollered, tossing a pink-toned beach ball in the air.  The other children all cheered in response and followed their friend down the path to the lakefront.  Sportacus, who’d been doing push-ups on a wall, jumped down and ran after the children.  The blue-clad hero skidded to a stop in front of the eager kids.  “Hi, Sportacus!”
“Hello, Stephanie, kids,” Sportacus greeted brightly.  “Were you going to the lake?”
“Yes, we were going to my lake,” Stingy interjected in his usual fashion.  Sportacus hid a chuckle at the boy’s quirk.  The hero crouched down to eye level with the children.
“Well, kids, what did we say yesterday?” he asked softly, putting one hand on Ziggy’s shoulder and the other on Stingy’s.  Sportacus sighed when he saw the blank stares on their faces.  “We promised Robbie that we wouldn’t all leave town again.  At least not without telling him.”
“Aw, why should we tell that no-good Robbie Rotten anything?” Trixie said with a sneer.  The other kids all chattered in agreement, and Sportacus shook his head.
“Robbie was really upset yesterday.  And if you want him to be nice to you, you should be nice to him.”  The kids slowly nodded, reluctantly agreeing.  Sportacus stood to his full height and smiled warmly at the children.  “Mayor Meanswell should be here in a moment, let him walk you to the lake.  I’ll be right back.�� Bye-bye.”
“Bye, Sportacus.”  The hero could hear the children grumbling as he ran off, but he wasn’t going to break a promise.
Robbie had just settled in for a mid-morning nap when he heard a pounding on the outside hatch.  Bleary-eyed, he shouted, “I don’t want any!  No one’s home!”  He mentally hit himself for the second statement, but he couldn’t take it back.  He just wanted to sleep.  The pounding came again.  “Go away!”
“Robbie?”  Robbie put his head in his hands.  It was that stupid flippy elf.  What did he want at this time of the morning?  “Robbie, it’s me, Sportacus!  Can I come in?”  Robbie groaned and hoped that Sportacus would just give up and go away.  After a moment of silence, Sportacus called, “I’m coming in.”
“Don’t!” Robbie shouted, but it was too late.  Sportacus came sliding down the pipe, but just a little too fast.  Robbie had engineered it for himself, after all, and he was an awful lot heavier than the bouncing kangaroo.  The hero shot out of the pipe with a cry and skidded across the floor before landing in front of Robbie’s chair in a blue heap.  Robbie stood on his chair and looked down at Sportacus.  “I told you so.”
Sportacus groaned and sat up.  “That you did, Robbie.”  His cap was askew, letting a few locks of caramel hair and an ear tip peek out.  Robbie pretended not to notice.  “I’m awfully sorry to barge in like this, but I didn’t want a repeat of yesterday.  We’re all going to the lake again, and I was wondering if you’d like to join us?”
Robbie put one hand to his chest and gaped at the hero.  “You want me to go to the lake with you?” he asked incredulously.  It was admittedly an enticing offer.  The villain didn’t fancy being left alone in town again.  Sportacus adjusted his cap and folded his hands in his lap.  Robbie felt a little bad; the elf looked like a kicked puppy.  Had he taken Robbie’s overdramatic response as a no?  “Hey, Sportafl-- Sportacus, I-- I never said no.”  Sportacus brightened.  “I’ll go.  If you promise to keep those,” he gagged on his words, “little brats in check.”
Sportacus leapt to his feet.  “Really?  That’s fantastic!”  He offered a hand to Robbie, and Robbie reluctantly took it.  The elf helped him down from his perch, but he continued to hold his hand after the fact.  “Let’s go!”
Robbie blinked at the bright sun as he and Sportacus clambered out of the villain’s lair.  Once again, Sportacus helped him step down from his perch on the ladder, and the hero started skipping down the path to the lake.  Robbie was slightly amazed that Sportacus wasn’t backflipping the entire way.  But then the showoff started skipping backwards.  Robbie managed to keep up with Sportacus’s pace by merit of his long legs alone.  “That’s a good way to fall, Sportaklutz,” Robbie remarked.
Sportacus shrugged.  “If I fall, maybe you can catch me,” he said cheerfully.  Robbie stifled a groan.
“Walk like a normal person, or I might just turn around and go home,” Robbie threatened.  Sportacus pouted for a moment before obliging him.  He still kept a slight hop in his step.  Maybe that was just how he walked.  “Sportakook--- Sportacus, enlighten me on something.”
“Yes, Robbie?”  The elf perked up at the idea that Robbie wanted to talk to him.
“What’s under your hat?”  Sportacus frowned.
“You know exactly what’s under my hat.  You’ve seen me without my hat plenty of times.  Or is your memory that bad?” Sportacus asked.  If Robbie didn’t know better, he would have thought he sounded... bitter.
“I’m assuming you have hair,” Robbie said with a snicker.  Sportacus glared at him.  For once, he seemed genuinely unamused.  The hero stopped in his tracks and ripped the cap from his head.  A mop of brown-blond curls tumbled loose, and his pointy ears twitched.
“Do you remember now?” Sportacus yelled, his face contorted with anger.  Robbie stared blankly for a moment trying to understand why the elf was so upset.  Then some sort of mental switch flipped.  The villain squinted at him.
“Alex?”  Sportacus threw his hands up.  “Alexander Alltbjart?”
“Yes!  How have you not realized that?  I’ve been here for ten months!” Sportacus cried in exasperation.  Robbie searched for the best way to answer.  How hadn’t he realized that the insufferable hero was his old schoolmate?  His old friend...
“Y-you disappeared ten years ago, Alex!  You were just gone.  I thought... Everyone thought you were dead!”  There was a moment of silence as the two men stared at each other in disbelief.  The anger on the elf’s face disappeared, being replaced by sorrow.  Robbie ran a hand through his hair, the silence stifling.
Sportacus broke the silence with a whispered, “But how didn’t you recognize me?  I know it’s been ten years, but...”
Robbie swallowed hard.  “Y-you were a lot shorter the last time I saw you.  Y-your voice changed.”  He stifled a laugh.  “You didn’t have that stupid pointy mustache.”  Sportacus self-consciously felt at the hair on his upper lip.  The villain’s face fell as he looked at the elf, find it hard to look past the uniform to see his old friend.  “Why did you leave, Alex?”
Sportacus sniffed, his eyes growing watery.  “I didn’t want to, Robbie,” he croaked, fiddling with his cap.  “I never wanted to leave LazyTown, it was... it is my home.  But I, I had to go.  It was my job.”
Robbie grabbed the elf by the shoulders and shook him gently.  “You didn’t have to go, Alexander!  Why didn’t you just leave it to Number 9?  Why didn’t you leave it to him?”
“Number 9 was dead!” Sportacus sobbed, tears freely falling.  Robbie stopped shaking him but didn’t let him go.  The elf shook with his sobs, clutching his cap close to him.  “Number 9 was dead before I left.  I was his successor, Robbie.  I was the only one who could carry on for him.”  Robbie’s grip loosened, and Sportacus fell into Robbie’s arms, crying into his chest.  “I didn’t want to go...”
Robbie wrapped one arm around Sportacus and put his other hand on the elf’s head, wrapping his fingers in his caramel-colored curls.  He was amazed at how quickly his own attitude toward the hero had changed given this new information.  He’d been absolutely horrid to him for the past ten months.  He’d tried to run him out of town dozens of times.  He’d given him sugar on multiple occasions.  He hadn’t felt so terrible about it before, but now he felt like a monster.
“Alex...” Robbie mumbled over and over, the name feeling foreign and familiar at the same time.  Sportacus’s tears eventually ran out, and the two men separated.  They smiled at each other and laughed nervously.  It was like enormous weights had been lifted from both of their shoulders.
“Everyone will be wondering where we are,” Sportacus said, moving to put his cap back on.  Robbie caught his hand, and the elf looked up at him in bewilderment.
“Keep it off, Alex.  I... I like you better without.”  Sportacus looked back down at the ground, covering his ears with his hands.  Robbie gently placed his hands on the elf’s arms, studying his face.  “Alexander?” he said softly.
“The kids...”  Robbie nodded; he understood.  He moved so he and Sportacus were side-by-side, and he snaked one arm around the elf, holding him close.  With a sniff, Sportacus jammed his cap back on his head and said, “Let’s go.”
Seeing Robbie walk alongside Sportacus shocked not just the kids, but Mayor Meanswell and Miss Busybody as well.  The villain wasn’t poking jabs at the hero, and he wasn’t glaring at him either.  In fact, Robbie still had his arm around Sportacus, and Sportacus was laughing quietly at something Robbie had said, brushing aside a curl that had escaped his cap.  Curiosity piqued, the children abandoned the sandcastle they’d been buidling and ran across the sand to meet them.
“Yo, yo, what’s goin’ on?” Jives asked, folding his arms across his chest.
“Yeah, Sportacus, what’s going on?” Stephanie said, miming her friend.  Biting his bottom lip, Sportacus broke away from Robbie’s grasp and knelt down in front of the children.
“Uh, kids, I... I have something to tell you.”  The kids stared at him with concern.  Sportacus took a deep breath before saying, “I haven’t been entirely truthful with you.  Sportacus... isn’t my name.  It’s just a title.  My name is... Alexander.  Alexander Alltbjart.”  The children were quizzical now, but they let him continue.  “A-and, I’m not... human.”  Sportacus tugged his cap from his head and brushed his hair out of the way of his pointed ears.  “I’m... I’m an elf.”  Sportacus fiddled with his cap as he waited for a reaction.
No reaction came, so Sportacus took a shuddering breath and stammered, “I-I was born in Iceland, b-but my mother raised me here, in LazyTown.  R-Robbie and I were f-friends, g-good friends, b-but I left, because N-number 9 gave me the title.”  His breaths were coming quick and short now, and he was visibly distressed.  Robbie put a hand on Sportacus’s shoulder.  “I-I-I’m so sorry, kids.”  Sportacus put his head in his hands, not even waiting for the kids to react this time.
Stephanie stepped forwards and wrapped her arms around the elf’s neck.  He tensed, but he settled into the embrace and hugged her back.  The other children followed her example and came up to hug their hero however they could.  “Why are you sorry, Sportacus?” Stephanie asked, pulling away slightly.
“I kept the truth from you,” Sportacus answered, his brows upturned and his eyes wide.  “Doesn’t that upset you?”  Stephanie bit the inside of her cheek.
“Well, I’m a little upset that you didn’t tell us, but I understand if you were scared.”  The girl smiled at her older friend.  “I like your ears.”  Sportacus forced a chuckle and put his fingers lightly on the tips.
Ziggy broke the silence that followed by saying, “Can I still call you Sportacus?”  Sportacus laughed, genuinely this time, and gently pulled the youngest boy off of his back to hug him.
“Of course you can, Ziggy,” the hero replied.  “All of you can call me whatever you want.  Sportacus, Alexander, Alex...”  He made a sour face.  “Just please don’t call me Mister Alltbjart.  For the love of all that is good, do not.”  The children all giggled, still hanging on their hero.  “I need to get up, kids.”  The kids refused to move, so Sportacus braced himself and stood, lifting the kids up with him.  The children squealed with delight as they let him go one by one and dropped to the sand.
“Yo, yo, Sportacus, does this mean that you and Robbie are friends now?” Jives asked, bouncing up and down.  The two men looked at each other and grinned nervously.
“W-what do you say, Robbie?  Are we friends again?”
Robbie pretended to think it over before smiling widely.  “Yes, I think we’re friends.”  The elf’s face lit up instantly, and Robbie grabbed him into a bear hug, lifting him off the ground and spinning him around.  The children cheered in delight and ran back to finish their sandcastle.
Robbie finished spinning the elf and set him back on his feet.  Sportacus smiled widely up at Robbie, his face flushed.  Robbie knew that he had the same goofy look on his own face.  “You really missed me, didn’t you” Sportacus whispered, his lips still quirked up in a lopsided grin as he spoke.
The villain wrapped his arm around Sportacus and lightly squeezed.  “Yeah, I really missed you, Alex.”  Being able to say his name again without it bringing tears to his eyes was a wonderful feeling.  “So... what do we do now?”  Sportacus rolled his eyes at his friend.
“Volleyball is always an option.”  Robbie stuck out his tongue and pretended to gag.
“Nuh-uh.  We may be friends again, but that doesn’t mean I’m ready to start playing sports with you again.  You were a menace when we were kids.  You’re even worse now.”  Sportacus giggled, brushing aside a stray curl.  “Can I get you to sit for a little while?”
“You can try.  Why?”
“We have a lot of catching up to do.”
That’s the end, folks! :D I wanted Sporto and Robbo to have a reconciliation of sorts before they hooked up.  And there you have it!  I might continue this later with reactions from other characters... later...  Feedback is appreciated :)

Guys, gals, and pals!! This is it!! The announcement I’ve been dying to make! This idea has been in the works since late April! A Summer-long fandom-wide viewing of LazyTown!
It starts June 27th, the first night of the “course.” We’ll be watching LazyTown twice a week on Tuesday and Friday nights at midnight eastern standard time! (That’s the midnights between Tues and Wednesday, and Friday and Saturday!) I’d love to start it earlier, but this is the only time i can assure my work schedule will not get in the way.
We’ll start out watching 4 episodes of LazyTown per night. As we approach the return of school, it will decrease to 2 episodes of LazyTown. Each night we will finish it off with an episode of LazyTown Extra! :D The last night will be September 22nd. That’s 26 viewing sessions in all. (This post will be updated with a link to a detailed schedule soon!)
Why am I pushing for this?
Because I want us to have a fandom-wide celebration of LazyTown! Everyone is welcomed! If you think you’re not, you are wrong! When I say everyone, I mean everyone! Let’s celebrate the results of the hard work put forth by Magnus, Stefan, and everyone involved in the making of LazyTown!
My other goal in holding this is to expand the fandom! So please please bring along a willing friend who may or may not have heard of LazyTown and hasn’t seen all the episodes!
How do I sign up?
There’s no real need to! You can just show up if you want! Here’s the thing though, rabb.it allows up to 25 people besides the host to be in one room at a time, so please let me know if you intend to participate! If there’s enough people interested in it, I will run it multiple nights! For example, I will show the first 8 eps Sunday and Wednesday, Monday and Thursday, Tuesday and Friday, and possibly double up on Saturdays. (The Saturday session would only be once a week, but the flip side is the viewing would be at least 3 hours and 45 minutes plus a few short breaks.) So please contact me to let me know if you will be participating, if you will be bringing a friend, and which nights you prefer. The last bit of info is only in case this gets really big and I need to expand it beyond Tuesday and Friday nights. Also the other sessions will start later. (ex: Sun and Wed session would start on July 2nd, Mon and Thurs July 3rd, etc. Keep in mind, these will end later and will cut into school days more.) But like I said, if you just feel like showing up and you haven’t told me beforehand, please show up anyways! There won’t be a guaranteed spot for you, but you’re more than welcome to try!
Badges
That’s right! As a little reward for participating in this fandom-wide event, you will receive badges! Well, they’re actually small images, and I can’t keep people who didn’t participate from stealing them, but this is just for fun! Can you get all four participation badges?? ;)
Rules (please read carefully)
People who contacted me ahead of time about participating will receive first access to the room. Then I will make a public post with the link inviting everyone else to join.
We will be skipping three episodes: “Double Trouble,” “The Lazy Genie,” and “The Fortune Teller” for controversial content that I refuse to endorse.
I ask that you tell me your url when you enter the room so that I can keep track of attendance. This is the only way I can hand out badges. If you don’t care about badges then it doesn’t really matter I suppose, but I’d still like to know who you are.
no drama, no arguing, no bullying, no slurs, no hate of any kind. no rpfing, no pedofilia, no racism, no nsfw content of any kind. First sign of any of this and you will be kicked, no warning.
no mention of daddy kinks or dd/lg, no topics of sexual things or posting emojis used for sexual symbols. this includes in a joking manner. You will receive one warn
no cursing (sorry folks but not in this setting please), you will receive three warnings before being kicked.
in general, keep the chatroom at pg-13 tops.
there will be fictionkin. I am fictionkin. I’m not asking anyone to believe in us being these characters, just to be respectful of us. You will be given two warnings before being kicked. 
Fickin, I ask that in this setting we refrain from using “I” or “me” when talking about a character on screen. This may confuse some people, and if there are multiples of the same kin, it might invalidate them unintentionally. So please use the characters’ names and he/she/them, even when it is yourself.
Lastly, please consider donating to Stefan Karl Stefansson’s cause. He and his family will need every kind of support we can give right now. Here’s the link: https://www.gofundme.com/2tm9tqk
That’s it, folks!! Please spread the word, and spread it far and wide! This fandom-wide event starts in 4 days!!
Tumblr media
Let’s Go!!!

What was your first Lazytown episode? Which one have you seen the most times? Do you have a favourite Pixel quote (and if so, what is it)?
The first full episode I saw was s01e01 - “Welcome To LazyTown” because I really wanted to watch them all in order... but the first thing from LazyTown I saw ever (besides We Are Number One) was a clip from s01e23 - “Sportacus Who” where Robbie was telling Sportacus what the kids were calling him behind his back. (THE BLUE ELF?!)
I think I’ve probably seen either “The First Day of Summer” or “Sportafake” the most times because they’re GREAT episodes and I love them.My favorite Pixel quote is from s04e03 - “Secret Friends Day” near the end when Robbie tells them to stop tricking him into playing their silly games, and readjusts his rubber ducky life preserver, to which Pixel says, “That’s a good look for you, Robbie!!” which I thought was hilarious. Pixel is my favorite kid.

Conversation
What she says: I'm fine.
What she means: In "The First Day of Summer" everyone leaves Robbie alone in Lazytown. When he can't find anyone, he finds a fly and decides to be friends with it since he's so lonely, but when everyone comes back and he sees it again, no one else can! In the clip of Sportacus saving the bee/fly from a mailbox, we can see the bug fly out. So we know that one can actually see the bugs in the show. In the episode, everyone laughs it off like "oh Robbie has an imaginary friend!" ROBBIE IS A GROWN ASS ADULT!! It's very unlikely that he would have an imaginary friend so the other explanation would be that he has had some sort of breakdown and is seeing things that aren't there. Are none of them concerned about his wellbeing? Why does no one ask him about the fly? WHY DID THEY ALL LEAVE TOWN FOR THE DAY WITHOUT INVITING HIM TO THE BEACH I KNOW HES A BAD GUY BUT WE SEE TIME AND TIME AGAIN THAT THEY SOMETIMES ENJOY HIS COMPANY.

Hello, I need some help from the fandom. I want to watch LazyTown, but I have no time to watch all of the episodes (I'll watch them someday tho) so my question is, what are the best/most important/favorite/etc. episodes that are a must watch?
i guess it depends on what you’re looking for out of an episode?? i personally like the episodes where robbie isn’t treated like a ‘villain’ for once, and feels included with the other characters: episodes like “lazytown’s surprise santa”, “the holiday spirit”, and “the greatest gift”. robbie also gets some character development - but since the show has no continuity save for the running gags - unfortunately it is limited to those episodes. they’re still well worth the watch, of course!also “rottenbeard” and “the lazytown circus”, because robbie doesn’t use his disguises to further deceive the kids, and actually ends up having lots of fun bonding with them :’). not to mention his disguises in those episodes were so on point.then there are the episodes where sportacus and robbie have a lot of interaction, which makes up a sizeable chunk of season one and to a lesser extent season two/three/four. “crystal caper”, “sleepless in lazytown”  “sportafake”, “play day”, and “sportacus who?” are my favourites.but my absolute favourite lazytown episode, and i’m sure i speak for most of the lazytown fandom, is “first day of summer”. it’s such a great episode that it really should’ve been written and shot as a series finale. i won’t say anything more about it because i really don’t want to spoil anything, but i strongly advise that you save that episode for last.oh yeah, and “dancing duel” because of rottenella. just… rottenella. i love her so much and i’m sure you will to, you’ll see. :’)and just in case you currently have no way of watching them, you can watch most of the episodes in hd here. the person running the account is in the process of uploading season four so all of the eps will be available real soon!

The Unified LazyTown Canon
(also known as overanalyzing LazyTown)
Okay. Serious time. I just watched the original LazyTown plays and I think I’ve figured EVERYTHING out. Who Sportacus is, why Robbie Rotten already knows him in Season 1 Episode 1 of the TV series. Oh boy. This is long, so, well... be ready.
So, to begin, the original plays. If you’re not aware, the TV show is a sequel/adaptation of a series of original plays. So, the first one. The titular LazyTown is, simply enough, a lazy town. Everyone in it is lazy, and nobody leaves home. Everyone is unhealthy, etc, until Sportacus shows up and saves the day by teaching people to do the things they like (TV, candy, spending money, etc) in moderation.
This first one, known as Let’s Go! Lazytown, is important because it tells us who Sportacus is. He’s an elf, from a village off to the north. Also, in this play, he looked like this.
Tumblr media
Another matter of importance in the play is that we’re made aware of other towns. The only one explicitly mentioned besides in the sports competition at the end is BrineTown, which is safe to assume is a seaside village. Also, these people have a government revolving around a president. Now, continuing onward.
The second play (Robbie Rotten in LazyTown) introduces us to Robbie Rotten. He’s more or less as we remember, and the tune to Master of Disguise is actually from his introduction song. (https://youtu.be/KhGUWgDEfbM?t=386) In fact, the Mine Song debuted in the first LazyTown play, not to mention the opening theme.
Oh, and Sportacus looks like this:
Tumblr media
Not much about this teaches us things we don’t know besides the mention of MayhemTown, a town where ‘people pee in the streets’ (https://youtu.be/KhGUWgDEfbM?t=1963) and other bad things. So now we know that the towns are named after what happens in them. A sort of odd naming method for a sort of odd series.
Now, that takes us to the TV series, where things start to come together. But first, there’s a few unimportant-seeming things that suddenly jump to the spotlight.
First! Stephanie. You know, pink girl. In the original play (though she wasn’t pink, her name was still Stephanie and she adopted the pink wardrobe in the second play), she had trouble stretching, and was so stiff she couldn’t tie her own shoes. She lives in LazyTown. So why is she only coming back for the summer in S1E1?
Well, there’s two possible answers. First, she moved away. Second, she’s not the old Stephanie.
The first one I think makes a good amount of sense- moving away from LazyTown for a while would likely be a good things, especially with Robbie Rotten wreaking havoc every time Sportacus leaves, but there are a few things that make this a little bit confusing. Specifically? Ziggy’s reaction to her. (https://youtu.be/IUMecbBXCcA?t=413) He says, ‘who are you and do you have any candy?’ They should know each other well from the last plays.
The second one has a bit of evidence to its name but it’s equally outlandish- it’s possible the Stephanie we know is a descendant of the original Stephanie. The only real proof is that Stephanie’s uncle is Mayor Meanswell, who, in the original, had nothing to do with her. That means that Meanswell is probably her father’s brother. Probably. Since she doesn’t live in LazyTown, it’s also safe to assume her father doesn’t live there either. This is also supported by some things I’ll get to later. Honestly, I think it’s a dumb idea but it seems to make the most sense.
Now, back on topic, the first episode’s plot is simple. Everyone’s freaking lazy again, and Stephanie can’t find anyone to play with so she’s bored. After she complains to Meanswell, he mentions he remembered a time when the people in LazyTown played outside, and tells her about Sportacus. So she goes to his mailbox thing and sends him a letter.
Now, all this time, we’ve been cutting back to Robbie Rotten. He remembers Sportacus, and as Stephanie sends the letter says things like ‘maybe he’s on vacation’ and ‘maybe he gave up being a superhero’. Things don’t go so well for him and they end with a musical number on sports and things.
But the biggest issue here is what this means for the timeline.
If Meanswell is still the same Meanswell (which seems likely, as his puppet’s appearance is somewhat older than the actors for him in the plays) then that means that Robbie should’ve aged too. Sportacus, maybe not, since he’s an elf (and also his LazyTown history book is dated to the 1700s and he ‘remembers it’) but Robbie should be at least older now. Heck, his unhealthy lifestyle would maybe even mean he’d be dead.
But considering the teleportation stunts he pulls in the Master of Disguise musical number later in the show, it’s probably safe to assume he’s an elf too. That means that LazyTown has basically been caught up in a war between supernatural entities, one of which wants the best for humanity, and the other of which wants them to be lazy and useless.
So- to conclude. There are two Stephanies, and probably multiple Pixels and Stingies and Trixies and all the kids from the original LazyTown plays, and in addition to that, Robbie Rotten and Sportacus are elves, and there are other towns.
Kill me.
